Ultrasonic Inserts
Ultrasonic Inserts, also known as ultrasonic welding inserts or heat-set inserts, are specialized fasteners used in plastic assemblies to create strong and reliable threaded connections. These inserts are designed to be ultrasonically welded into pre-molded or drilled holes in thermoplastic materials, such as ABS, nylon, polycarbonate, and others. Ultrasonic welding is a fast and efficient method that provides a hermetic and vibration-resistant bond, making Ultrasonic Inserts ideal for applications where traditional threaded inserts cannot be used due to material limitations or assembly requirements.
Main Features
Our Ultrasonic Inserts come with a range of features that make them stand out in the market:
- High-Quality Materials: The primary feature of these inserts is their construction from materials like brass, stainless steel, or aluminum for excellent strength and durability.
- Internal Threads: Ultrasonic Inserts have precision-machined internal threads that allow for easy and secure fastening of screws or bolts.
- Ultrasonic Welding Compatibility: These inserts are specially designed to withstand the heat and pressure of ultrasonic welding processes.
- Various Designs: Our selection includes different designs, such as straight-hole, flanged, and press-in, to suit various applications and assembly methods.
- Corrosion Resistance: Many inserts have a corrosion-resistant coating or plating, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh environments.
- Easy Installation: Ultrasonic Inserts are designed for straightforward installation using ultrasonic welding equipment.
- Hermetic Seal: The ultrasonic welding process creates a hermetic and airtight seal, making these inserts suitable for applications requiring fluid or gas containment.
- Vibration Resistance: Ultrasonic Inserts provide excellent vibration resistance, ensuring a secure connection even in dynamic applications.
Applications
Ultrasonic Inserts find applications in a wide range of industries and products, including:
- Automotive: Used in automotive interiors and exteriors, electronic components, and assemblies.
